    Obama increased our total debt by 30% in 2 years. His $862 Billion Stimulus + $700 Billion Tarp were part of that contributing 31% to this debt. Don't say it was our current trajectory, because he made choices like Libya, solely on his own. He subscribes to Sun Tzu. You might want to read "The Art of War" sometime.

  • @ThunderheadNebula you forget that Obama's first budget started October 1 2009.Bush's budget ended September 30 2009. The policies that created the huge deficits and revenue reduction were implemented between 2001 and 2005.

    Almost all of the deficit is caused by Bush policies. Plus you throw in the recession that Republican policies help create. You know "let the free market regulate itself"

  • Barney Frank came into power in 2007, well after the financial crisis caused by Wall Street was started. DUH!

  • The debt when George W. Bush took office was $5.727 Trillion when he left it was $10.627 Trillion. The total debt that George W accumulated in eight years of office is $4.84 Trillion The debt right now is $14.23 Trillion. In approximately 788 days in office, Obama has accumulated $4.24 Trillion. Using simple algebra you'll find by Nov 24 2011, Obama will have accumulated more debt in three years than George W. did in 8 years.
